Hello, I have 3 modules (A / B / C), B & C depend on 1 to share classes. But with the export SPM, it rename the class from A to BClass & CClass. Instead of keeping the classe from A. Is it possible to not rename it and keep reference from the module ?

I'm not sure I'm following correctly, but have you tried making them an api(B) dependency (instead of implementation(B)) and then adding export(B) in the framework { } block in build.gradle.kts?

[Raphael TEYSSANDIER]

Yes, it's still export the class like it's from module B and not A

[Tadeas Kriz]

That's weird, that shouldn't be the case

[Raphael TEYSSANDIER]

I'm asking myself if it's even possible. Maybe I need to make a umbrella framework that contains all framework and export it

[Tadeas Kriz]

I'm confused about your module structure

[Tadeas Kriz]

I thought A is the umbrella

[Raphael TEYSSANDIER]

• A: Remote Config & Handling error (Common Result class)
• B: API from a service. Depend on A for Result
• C: API from another service. Depend on A for Result
I want to add B&C in a iOS project, and C in another iOS project

Dunno if it's clear 😄

[Tadeas Kriz]

Are A, B, C all kotlin modules?

[Raphael TEYSSANDIER]

Yes

[Tadeas Kriz]

Ah I see what's the problem

[Tadeas Kriz]

So you're producing .framework in both B and C?

[Raphael TEYSSANDIER]

Yes exactly

[Tadeas Kriz]

I see, I thought you were talking about a different limitation of Kotlin/Native.

[Raphael TEYSSANDIER]

No, it's more about exporting with SPM

[Raphael TEYSSANDIER]

Dunno if there is method to map a kotlin module to SPM package

[Tadeas Kriz]

This is unfortunately something you'll have to create a BC umbrella framework. Each .framework is separate and has unique symbols. So you can't pass types between B.framework and C.framework, even though the Kotlin code is the same

[Tadeas Kriz]

There's nothing SKIE can help with here, because this is a Kotlin/Native limitation in how the final .framework is being built

[Raphael TEYSSANDIER]

Arf, okay. I was afraid of this answer. Thank you for helping !
